IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is very impor-tant due to the critical role it plays in the Next Generation Network (NGN) of the Fixed and Mobile Networks. Voice traffic in IMS will be served using Internet Protocol (IP) which is called Voice over IP (VoIP). This paper uses the "E-Model", (ITU-T G.107), as an optimization tool to select network and voice… (More)

AIM
To evaluate the accuracy of middle cerebral/umbilical artery resistance index (C/U RI) ratio in predicting acidemia and low Apgar score at 5 minutes after birth in the infants of women with preeclampsia.
METHODS
This prospective case-control study performed at Kasr El Aini University Hospital included 50 pregnant women with preeclampsia with or… (More)

extend the life time of the network. In EAGRP, both position information and energy are available at nodes used to route packets from sources to destination. This will prolong the lifetime of the sensor nodes; hence the network life time and thus get higher packet delivery ratio and minimal compromise of energy efficiency. The proposed protocol is an… (More)

Evaluating the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Performance is very important due to the critical role it plays in the Next Generation Network (NGN) of the Fixed and Mobile Networks. This paper proposes three robust and scalable methods that can be used to evaluate the performance, the Compliance of the IMS controllers and benchmark their different vendors.… (More)

The ultimate goal of the BIM concept is to create a complete digital model of the building to insure the generation of an accurate bill of material and cost estimate along with coordinated drawings and details. This goal might need the contribution of various disciplines to provide the needed level of information. The development of capable specialized… (More)

This paper investigates an approach to begin the study of fractals in architectural design. Vector-based fractals are studied to determine if the modification of vector direction in either the generator or the initiator will develop alternate fractal forms. The Koch Snowflake is used as the demonstrating fractal.

This paper investigates an approach to the use of fractals in architectural design. Two major aspects are discussed. First, the effect of the direction of the line segments on the generated fractal, as well as, the proportions between the generator and the initiator. Secondly, the meanings attached to the lines segments that constitute the fractal are based… (More)

BACKGROUND
Skin tags (STs) have been investigated as a marker of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), yet the relation of STs to obesity is still a matter of controversy.
AIM
The aim of the study is to explore the relation of number, size and color of STs to obesity, diabetes, sex and age in one study.
METHODS
The study included 245 nondiabetic (123 males and… (More)
